A Resource to Follow Environmental (and other) Issues

I learned recently about a resource to help us keep track of what our representatives in Washington are doing. It's http://www.opencongress.org

It made it quite easy to discover what my Congressman, Scott Garrett (NJ-5) has done recently on environmental issues, and I recommend that you check it out for yourself!

In the last couple of months, Rep. Garrett voted:

AGAINST the bill to reauthorize the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (H.R.720) (it passed the House 303 – 108)

AGAINST H.R.700 - Healthy Communities Water Supply Act of 2007 (it passed the House 368 – 59)

AGAINST H.R.569 - Water Quality Investment Act of 2007 (it passed the House 367 – 58)

FOR H.R.547 - Advanced Fuels Infrastructure Research and Development Act (it passed the House 400-3)
